Ingredients

  • 2 Atlantic salmon fillets (6oz each)
  • 2 tbsp white miso paste
  • 1 tbsp clover honey
  • 1 tsp mirin
  • 1 tbsp mochiko flour
  • 1/4 cup black and white sesame seeds
  • 2 tbsp avocado oil
  • 1 bunch baby bok choy
  • 1 tsp grated fresh ginger

Instructions

1
Begin by whisking the miso, honey, mirin, and grated ginger in a small bowl until smooth.
2
Pat the salmon fillets completely dry with a paper towel.
3
Lightly dust the flesh side of the salmon with mochiko flour to ensure the glaze clings perfectly.
4
Spread a generous layer of the miso mixture over the top of each fillet, then press the salmon firmly into the mixed sesame seeds to create a textured, crunchy crust.
5
Heat avocado oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat.
6
Place the salmon crust-side down carefully; sear for 3 minutes until the seeds are fragrant and caramelized.
7
Flip the salmon gently and continue cooking for another 3-4 minutes until the center reaches your desired doneness.
8
Serve immediately alongside charred baby bok choy, drizzling any remaining glaze over the plate for an umami-rich finish.
